A new feature you will see on our site every Sunday will be my top three sports stories from the week that was. It will be a combination of local and national sports stories, depending on the time of year, and it will be in no particular order.
Here are my Top Three From The Week That Was:
1. North Country graduate Whitney Bernier skated for Team Vermont in the Make-A-Wish all-Star Hockey Game.
2. Montreal goaltender Carey Price became the first goaltender to win both the Vezina and Hart trophies since Dominik Hasek did it in the late 90's.
